Disclosed are a method and a system for modifying flight parameters of a remotely piloted aircraft. The remotely piloted aircraft includes a clock, at least one radio receiver and at least one radio transmitter for communicating with at least one radio transmitter of a ground station, via at least one radio communication network. The method includes analyzing a communication between the remotely piloted aircraft and the ground station, such as calculating the latency of the communication. The method also includes modifying at least one flight parameter based on the calculated latency and pre-loaded instructions.
